2. perhaps it's time to revisit the equal rights amendment.
conservatives will continue to try and to some extent they will succeed in dismantling roe a little bit at a time.

conservatives will also try and they will succeed in denying benefits and opportunity to minorities and working poor.

they will succeed on the second front because of horrendous hole they've dug with the debt and the deficit.

if we can revisit the equal rights amendment -- and begin to reopen womens health clinics -- we can on the public health front begin to reach the poor -- perhaps more effectively than we have done in the past.

as far as the authors concern re:eugenics -- i think that's what something like the equal rights amendment is for.
